Furumapura is another manga by Cool Kyoushinsha. (Yes I like his work dammit)

It’s a simple 4 koma about high school girls who meet by chance. Kyou is a loud, overbearing kind of girl who seems to have an Irish accent or probably British since they love the Brits but it seems more Irish to me (at least that’s how the English version I read, made it seem). While Makoto is a quiet girl who uses signs to talk but it’s not with words. These signs are numbered 1-10 as if it was a rating system. Kyou has to figure out what the numbers mean and she pretty much carries the book since Makoto does not talk at all, just uses the signs. Continue reading

Soul Eater is one that I kept pushing back for some reason. Not sure why since I’ve been on the lookout for longer animes. I am so tired of the 12-13 episode crap of recent times.

The show takes place at Death Weapon Meister Academy. The main characters are 3 students who are weapon meisters and they’re paired with weapons who can transform into humans with their own personalities. Their goal is to make their weapons into Death Scythes who are suitable to serve the headmaster. That headmaster is Death. To do this they must collect 99 souls and a witch in that order or they have to start over. Continue reading

Daily Lives of High School Boys is a bunch of skits pieced together to form an anime. There is no coherent storyline to follow, it’s just wholesome comedy fun.

The show follows Tadakuni and his 2 friends through everyday things…or is it school things at their all boys academy? They actually have a debate about this in the anime. They obliterate the 4th wall without mercy. They even talk about the guy who writes the manga. It has after school stuff, during school, little sisters, older sisters, bullies and all the things from those awkward years for most us. Continue reading

In the genre of school comedies you have some that focus on school and some that focus on the club side. D-Frag is one of the ones that take the club side and take it up a notch.

A “delinquent” named Kenji is forcibly recruited into the Games Club and I mean forcibly. When he joins the club he meets some awkward girls who are the other members of the club. Kenji is needed so that the club isn’t disbanded. The girls of the club all have some “element”. Water, fire, earth, etc. and they’re dead serious about them too. As the show goes on the club gets into battles with other clubs over some form of supremacy. The show is almost all comedy and battles so it’s always moving. Continue reading

Tonari no Seki-kun is a short show coming in at about 7 minutes per episode. The premise of the show is about two students Rumi and Seki. Seki is always doing something that is not classwork and Rumi is “trying” to study and pay attention but gets sucked into Seki’s world. Even in the cover shot you see Seki building a volcano. While Seki is doing all these things, Rumi is watching and not paying attention. Continue reading

Ever feel like you’re falling without a parachute? That’s been me lately while trying to catch up with everything. Since slicing my wrist open with a miter saw I’ve had typing issues then my laptop and keyboard started dying so had to get a new one. Now I’m trying to get my files from the old one to the new one and my tabs in Firefox. I have to get back into a routine since I’m so far behind on this site and my game blog too. Haven’t written anything for the manga in a while because I couldn’t but I’ve had a lot of dialogue ideas. I’ll get there somehow…

Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya is a spinoff of Fate/Stay Night. Fate/Stay Night was more of a fantasy battle type show but this one involves magical girls with the fantasy aspect mixed in since there is a lot of carryover from the original show. Illyasviel von Einzbern from the original series is here as the protagonist, living her life as a schoolgirl.

The 1st season of the show starts off with Ilya being given magical girl powers. Alone with her “mentor” Rin from the first series, she must learn what being a magical girl is about. She goes through the ups and downs of getting awesome and not knowing how to control it. The show has a lot of her school life mixed in too so it’s not ALL action but there is a decent amount of it. Continue reading

Jiang Hao Yi, is a normal high school kid who stays out of trouble but soon he becomes the harem king of the school. He has all the most beautiful girls of the school confessing to him and he doesn’t even know these girls. With all the guys now after him because he’s taking all the girls, he ends up falling off the roof of the school when an angel/goddess/cupid comes to save him and she explains the situation that he finds himself in with the girls. He shared “cupid’s chocolate” with the girls (which he doesn’t remember) and now they’re in love with him and he must fulfill their dreams with him to break the “curse”. Continue reading

Konosuba is a show that I was going to pass on but I started watching. Was not impressed at first but the show kind of grows on you. And it seriously grew on Japan because it started getting the top rank in Japanese polls after a few weeks.

Satou is a hikikomori who’s life came to an end in a traffic accident. At least that’s what he thought but he woke up in front of a girl who called herself a goddess. She offers him the chance to go to another world but he can only take one thing with him. He couldn’t think of anything so he answered by saying he’d take HER. And so the journey begins, an adventure where the reborn Satou and the goddess must now slay the Demon King. Continue reading
